Message: [QUOTE="Harry Sack, post: 2583906, member: 8311"] For me, the kick by Barba that led to the GI try was an absolute howler, I don't recall the kick you're referring too. Good summation too, I just didn't want to quote the whole thing :laugh: Bad read IMO. I always look at it as a case of if the roles were reversed and I'd hate for that try to be taken off us. In saying that though, the on field ref ruled "no try" and under the current rules, I don't believe there was enough evidence to overturn that decision. So in that context, it should have remained a no try. I don't like changing the squad too much personally. I always prefer bringing someone else in, rather than shuffling the squad around. I think that leads to defensive lapses etc as players adjust to either a new position or a new defender beside them. I would have left the squad as is this week and brought someone in to fill the 5/8th role. When is The Hoff back anyone? Problem is, when we lose, we aren't losing by much and we're putting points on. Would be a different story if we were getting spanked or if we were on a losing streak. Agreed It's always been my biggest issue with that rule, some teams are allowed to do it, whereas others always seem to be pulled back for 1 reason or another. The only way, to my knowledge, that you can't tap and go is if you're in the other teams 10m or if the penalty was for offside. Other than that, I think it's fair game. Someone to correct me if I'm wrong. I was at the game as well, so I'm not to sure but I swear there were a number of occasions where we tried to go, legitimately, but were pulled back. Meanwhile Souths were allowed to go several times. Could not agree more. Agreed. Hard to believe there were 6,000 spare seats. Haven't been to a game like that for a long time. Great atmosphere.
